[Kinematic characteristics of the voluntary cyclic trunk movements in patients at the early stage of Parkinson's disease].

Patients with the initial stage of Parkinson disease (PD) and matched controls performed repetitive bendings and turnings in standing position. Tasks included trunk movements in each of the anatomical planes: sagittal, frontal and axial. Electromagnetic system Flock of Birds was used for movement registration.

[Application of transcranial pulsed electrostimulation and an alternating electrostatic field to the treatment of "restless legs" syndrome in patients with Parkinson disease].

The objective of this work was to evaluate the possibility to use combined therapy including application of transcranial pulsed electrostimulation and an alternating electrostatic field to the treatment of "restless legs" syndrome (RLS) in patients with Parkinson disease. A total of 31 patients with this syndrome were available for observation. A single course of combined therapy resulted in a substantial (60.
